30 Besties?! (1/2)

I was at my house resting. The doctor told me to take it easy for the week so that my headaches won't attack anymore.

Troy has been always beside me this past few days. He was seating in the sofa at the foot of my bed working on his laptop. He was wearing a mossy green shirt and light brown shorts. His light brown hair was not styled, yet he looks so gorgeous. His emerald green eyes were focused on his laptop.

”Am I not disturbing you in your work?” I ask curiously. He has been working from home ever since I cam back from the hospital.

Troy looked at me and smiled. His emerald eyes twinkled. ”Of course not. You are always my top priority.” he said. He put his laptop down and walked towards me. He sat besides me in bed. I look at him and my heart started to flutter with the words he said.

”Thanks for taking care of me but I don't want you lose some important clients because of me.” I said.

Troy looked at me with a smile. He gently caressed my cheek. ”Don't worry Queenie. I have taken care of important matters already. I have left instructions to my assistant Rich on what to do and I am also working here from home so everything is fine. I am more at ease that I'm here with you.” he said.

My heart squeezed. I always feel comfortable when Troy is around. I feel at ease when he's beside me. I smile at him sweetly.

Then there was a knock on the door. ”Queenie?” Andrea's voice was heard at the other side of the door.

”Come in.” I say.

Andrea opened the door and entered. ”There's someone here to see you.” she said.

Troy sighed. ”Is he here again?” he said. He was referring to Shawn. Shawn was visiting me everyday after I was discharged from the hospital. My father had warned him not to get close to me but when I got home and my father isn't here he was free to be with me.

Troy's faced looked sour. I giggled looking at him. ”Are you jealous?” I teased him. ”But at least the two of you aren't fighting.”

”Well I promised you not to stir trouble when he's here. And we talked that we would have a cease fire when around you.” Troy said. ”As for jealous, I am a bit. I really don't want him holding you close.” He looks at me affectionately. It's like I'm gonna melt in his gaze.

”I'm sorry.” I said and bowed my head. I feel guilty that he feels this way.

Troy held my chin and lifted up my face. His emerald eyes were looking at my sky blue eyes with love and affection.

”I have told you many times Queenie. I'm just here waiting for you. I understand what this means to you. I will help you in any way I can and never leave you.” Troy said with a deep voice full of conviction. His emerald eyes started to put a spell on me.

”Ahem.” Andrea cleared her throat. We forgot that Andrea was also in the room.

”Well fortunately for you Troy, it's not Shawn who's here to see Queenie.” Andrea said. ”It's the wife and stepdaugther of Mayor Williams.”

”Victoria and Julia?” I asked. This is not really a surprise for me. I knew that sooner or later they will be coming to meet me. I smiled.

”Tell them I'll be down in a moment.” I said.

Andrea nodded.
